You said that Nisus Writer Express doesn't open your files "correctly", so I assume that means the documents are being opened, but something is amiss. Is that correct? If so, perhaps you can send us an example file and point out what exactly is going wrong.

Thank you, Martin.

The documents open without any problem, however none of the text styles and formatting carry over.

For DOC files, formatting should be imported, but not the actual stylesheet. For example, if a document defines an Emphatic style that italicizes some text, the text should be imported as italic, but without a proper Emphatic style defined or applied.

For DOCX files, the import will probably cover just the text itself, without any formatting or styles.

This is normal for Nisus Writer Express, as it relies on the import capabilities provided by the system (Mac OS X). The import may improve or change with every version of OSX, but it's outside of our control.

For improved import capabilities, please try using Nisus Writer Pro. It uses a customized LibreOffice-based converter, which is much more thorough and handles all types of content, eg: stylesheets, tables, comments, etc.
